Don't see any posts up for this puzzle, but I suppose it is a bit of a slog.

Struggling a bit to parse one or two but my main gripe would be a couple of clues where you don't know whether or not to include in the 29 count. As far as I can tell the answer is no, the 29 are clear enough once you have them all. I think.

Puzzled by 7dn. The answer on the grid is 7 letters long but the letter count in the clue is 5,2: 7. Struggling to find the 29 definition.

9d: read alternate letters in the clue. Chambers defines both versions as the same.
29d: it is an anagram, for an power producing device.
24d: yes, it is In Wales.
